Not sure if I was just unlucky with the long lines at the border...but I have not been back since.

I am planning to go next week-end or the week-end after but I will plan my journey so Im at the Border when it is cooler. Possibly I will try the Hatta Crossing...making sure I get fuel on the Oman side as fuel is hard to find once you are over the Border into UAE at Hatta.

Since the jobs were somewhat interdependent, I decided that I would wait until the time was right & do them all at once.

At first I only wanted to adjust the rear bumper & install a new trunk mounted sound system amplifier. The bumper’s right side was slightly out of position & bugging me. Its forward end was not lining up properly with the rear wheel fender arch. Because of this, I could also slightly see...

I'm back from a trip from Barcelona to Nürburgring and I'd like to share it with you. This is a trip that a couple of friends of mine and I have been talking about for a while. When one of them bought a 1991 Porsche 964 a few months ago, we decided it was time to do it. Dates were arranged, and off we went, three friends (girlfriends decided to take a plane to Stuttgart a leave the roadtrip to the guys), the Flying Olive and Louis Armstrong (black and with big cheeks).

Day 1...
